Reconciliation Action Plan

Acknowledgement of Country

We acknowledge the Wadawurrung and Wathaurong people, the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and live at Mambourin. We pay our respects to the Elders both past and present, and recognise their continuing connection to the land, waters and skies.

Reconciliation at Mambourin

As a developer, Frasers Property Australia acknowledges that we play a significant role in the evolution of the urban landscape, and with that comes a responsibility to respect and actively engage with the Traditional Owners of the land on which we develop.

Our Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) focuses on contributing to an inclusive workplace culture and respectful engaging and partnering with First Nations people on their self-determined principles.
